Description

本装置は、遠方監視システムに係り、特に監視位置に設ける監視端末(または監視回路)の電源バックアップ方式に関する。   This apparatus relates to a remote monitoring system, and more particularly to a power backup system for a monitoring terminal (or monitoring circuit) provided at a monitoring position.

遠方監視システムとしては、例えば、各種電気設備の状態を現地の監視端末で監視し、中央の監視室コンピュータに監視情報の送信や異常発生を通信回線を利用して通知する方式のものがある。具体的には、配電系統における電気設備の接地線に流れる漏電電流を監視端末で監視し、漏洩電流の異常検出で警報を監視室コンピュータに通知する。   As a remote monitoring system, for example, there is a system in which the state of various electric facilities is monitored by a local monitoring terminal, and monitoring information is transmitted to a central monitoring room computer or an abnormal occurrence is notified using a communication line. Specifically, the monitoring terminal monitors the leakage current flowing in the ground line of the electrical equipment in the distribution system, and notifies the monitoring room computer of an alarm when the leakage current is detected abnormally.

このような遠方監視システムにおいて、監視端末は無人化される場合が多く、監視端末の電源に停電が発生すると監視機能の喪失になるため、電池電源による電源バックアップ回路を備えたものがある(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   In such a remote monitoring system, the monitoring terminal is often unmanned, and when a power failure occurs in the power supply of the monitoring terminal, the monitoring function is lost. , See Patent Document 1).

この制御電源のバックアップ回路の概略構成を図8に示す。商用電源(AC100V)1の交流電力をスイッチング電源などのAC/DC変換器2によって電圧制御した直流電力に変換し、制御電源の電圧出力Vdd(5V)を得る。バックアップ回路は、停電を電圧低下検出回路3による交流入力の一次側で検出し、この停電検出信号をホトカプラなどの外部−内部絶縁回路4によって絶縁して取り込み、この停電検出信号によって電池制御回路5がバッテリ切替回路6に電源切替信号を出力する。この切替信号によりバッテリ切替回路6はAC/DC変換器2の出力に代えて、一次電池7を電源とした電圧Vddの出力を得る。   A schematic configuration of the backup circuit of the control power supply is shown in FIG. The AC power of the commercial power supply (AC100V) 1 is converted to DC power that is voltage-controlled by an AC / DC converter 2 such as a switching power supply to obtain a voltage output Vdd (5V) of the control power supply. The backup circuit detects a power failure on the primary side of the AC input by the voltage drop detection circuit 3, and insulates and captures this power failure detection signal by the external-internal insulation circuit 4 such as a photocoupler, and the battery control circuit 5 by this power failure detection signal. Outputs a power switching signal to the battery switching circuit 6. By this switching signal, the battery switching circuit 6 obtains an output of the voltage Vdd using the primary battery 7 as a power source instead of the output of the AC / DC converter 2.

この電源を監視端末に適用する場合、コンピュータ回路8は、外部−内部絶縁回路4からの停電検出出力を割り込み(NMI)信号として受け、一次電池7を電源として、中央の監視室コンピュータに監視情報や電源異常発生を通知する。ことができる。
特開平8−328674号公報
When this power source is applied to the monitoring terminal, the computer circuit 8 receives the power failure detection output from the external-internal insulation circuit 4 as an interrupt (NMI) signal, and uses the primary battery 7 as a power source to monitor information to the central monitoring room computer. Notification of power failure. be able to.
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-328673

前記のように、従来の電源バックアップ方式は、停電時にはその一次電圧の低下で電池電源に切替え、一次電圧の復旧で電源を電池から交流電源側に戻す。   As described above, the conventional power backup system switches to the battery power source when the primary voltage is lowered during a power failure, and returns the power source from the battery to the AC power source side when the primary voltage is restored.

ここで、交流電源には開閉サージなどが発生することが多い。また、交流電源には、極めて短い時間だけ電圧が低下する瞬断が起きることが多い。これらサージ時間や瞬断時間によっては、電圧低下検出回路3が誤って応動することが考えられ、電圧低下検出回路3が誤って応動すると、その度に電圧低下検出で電池電源に切替えられる。この場合、電池の消耗を早めることになるし、電池の小型化を図ることができない。また、誤った停電検出を上位のコンピュータに誤って通知してしまうという問題がある。   Here, there are many switching surges or the like in the AC power supply. In addition, the AC power supply often has an instantaneous interruption in which the voltage decreases for a very short time. Depending on the surge time and the instantaneous interruption time, the voltage drop detection circuit 3 may react erroneously. When the voltage drop detection circuit 3 reacts erroneously, it is switched to the battery power supply by detecting the voltage drop each time. In this case, battery consumption is accelerated, and the battery cannot be reduced in size. In addition, there is a problem that an erroneous power failure detection is erroneously notified to a host computer.

この対策として、電圧低下検出回路3による検出と電池制御回路5による切替制御に時間遅れを持たせることが考えられるが、この時間遅れの設定や設計が不適当になると、実際に停電発生したときにコンピュータ回路8等の停電を引き起こし、コンピュータ回路8の誤った処理や制御、さらには監視端末の機能喪失を起こす問題が生じる。   As a countermeasure, it is conceivable that there is a time delay between the detection by the voltage drop detection circuit 3 and the switching control by the battery control circuit 5, but if the setting or design of this time delay becomes inappropriate, a power failure will actually occur. This causes a power failure of the computer circuit 8 and the like, resulting in a problem of erroneous processing and control of the computer circuit 8, and further loss of the function of the monitoring terminal.

本発明の目的は、瞬断等による誤った停電検出を無くし、また電池の消耗を少なくしながら、監視装置の停電を確実に防止してバックアップ電源への自動切り替えとその復旧処理ができる電源バックアップ方式を提供することにある。   An object of the present invention is to provide a power backup capable of automatically switching to a backup power source and recovering the power by reliably preventing a power failure of a monitoring device while eliminating erroneous power failure detection due to a momentary interruption or the like and reducing battery consumption. To provide a method.

本発明は、前記の課題を解決するため、AC/DC変換器の二次側出力の電圧が低下し始めたことを停電として検出し、この検出を基にバッテリ切替制御を行い、さらにコンピュータ回路による処理データの退避処理、上位のコンピュータへの停電通知を行うようにしたもので、以下の構成を特徴とする。   In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention detects that the secondary output voltage of the AC / DC converter has started to decrease as a power failure, performs battery switching control based on this detection, and further includes a computer circuit. The processing data is saved by the above and a power failure notification is sent to the host computer, and has the following configuration.

以上のとおり、本発明によれば、以下の効果がある。   As described above, the present invention has the following effects.

実施形態1では、商用電源の電圧低下検出とAC/DC変換器の一次側電圧低下の始まりを検出することにより、二次側の停止に裕度を持って電池電源への切替が可能である。   In the first embodiment, it is possible to switch to a battery power source with a margin for stopping the secondary side by detecting the voltage drop detection of the commercial power source and the start of the primary side voltage drop of the AC / DC converter. .

実施形態2では、商用電源の電圧低下検出で、コンピュータ回路への割り込みによるソフトウェア処理することにより、停電検出起動によるソフトウェア処理、すなわち停電通報処理、停電によるDI誤検出ロック、DO誤出力ロックなど、外部回路との協調をソフトウェア処理が可能となる。また、ソフトウェア処理であるので、停電検出処理と併用して処理が可能である。   In the second embodiment, by detecting the voltage drop of the commercial power supply and performing software processing by interrupting the computer circuit, software processing by power failure detection activation, that is, power failure notification processing, DI erroneous detection lock due to power failure, DO erroneous output lock, etc. Software processing is possible for cooperation with external circuits. In addition, since it is software processing, processing can be performed in combination with the power failure detection processing.

実施形態3では、停電時に電源回路の二次側の電圧の低下を検出し、電池切替えを行うことにより、電源一次側と絶縁回路が不要であり、二次側回路だけで、停電によるコンピュータ処理が可能となる。また、停電検出回路用の電子デバイスが少量で済み、実装面積の縮小化が可能である。   In the third embodiment, by detecting a voltage drop on the secondary side of the power supply circuit at the time of a power failure and switching the battery, the power supply primary side and the insulating circuit are unnecessary, and only the secondary side circuit performs computer processing due to the power failure. Is possible. Further, a small amount of electronic device for the power failure detection circuit is required, and the mounting area can be reduced.

実施形態4では、復電時に電源回路の一次側の電圧で復電を検出し、ハードウェアによる復電制御を行うことができる。   In the fourth embodiment, at the time of power recovery, power recovery can be detected by the voltage on the primary side of the power supply circuit, and power recovery control by hardware can be performed.

実施形態5では、復電時に電源回路の二次側の電圧の復電を検出し、ハードウェアによる復電制御を行うことができる。   In the fifth embodiment, power recovery can be controlled by hardware by detecting power recovery of the secondary side voltage of the power supply circuit at the time of power recovery.

実施形態6では、復電時に電源回路の一次側の電圧の復電を検出し、ソフトウェアによる復電制御を行うことができ、実施形態4、5のようにハードウェアによらないため、復電時の電池OFF処理も、停電となった後の必要な処理後とのシャットダウン処理として、コンピュータ回路自身で電池OFFとし、停止させることが容易になる。   In the sixth embodiment, it is possible to detect power recovery of the primary voltage of the power supply circuit at the time of power recovery and perform power recovery control by software. As for the battery OFF process at the time, as a shutdown process after the necessary process after a power failure, it is easy to turn off the battery by the computer circuit itself and stop it.

本実施形態は、図1に示すハードウェア回路構成とし、停電を電源回路の一次側電圧の低下で検出し、バッテリ切替回路6のON/OFF切替をAC/DC変換器の二次側(出力)電圧によって制御する方式とする。   In the present embodiment, the hardware circuit configuration shown in FIG. 1 is used, a power failure is detected by a decrease in the primary voltage of the power supply circuit, and ON / OFF switching of the battery switching circuit 6 is performed on the secondary side (output) of the AC / DC converter. ) Use a voltage control method.

同図が図8と異なる部分は、バッテリ切替回路6の入力には電圧低下検出回路3からの検出信号に加えて、AC/DC変換器2の出力電圧が一定レベル以上か否かのバッテリ切替信号を入力する点にある。   8 differs from FIG. 8 in that the battery switching circuit 6 determines whether the output voltage of the AC / DC converter 2 is above a certain level in addition to the detection signal from the voltage drop detection circuit 3 at the input of the battery switching circuit 6. The point is to input the signal.

電圧低下検出回路3による一次側の電圧低下検出は、例えば、60〜70V程度を瞬断保証電圧として電圧低下を検出する。AC/DC変換器2は、AC/DC変換機能の他に、その出力電圧が規定電圧にあるか否かの判定出力としてバッテリ切替信号(リセット信号)を発生する機能を設ける。このバッテリ切替信号の発生には、例えば、規定電圧よりも少し低い比較基準電圧をもつ簡単なコンパレータ回路によって実現される。   The voltage drop detection on the primary side by the voltage drop detection circuit 3 detects a voltage drop using, for example, about 60 to 70V as an instantaneous interruption guarantee voltage. In addition to the AC / DC conversion function, the AC / DC converter 2 has a function of generating a battery switching signal (reset signal) as a determination output as to whether or not the output voltage is at a specified voltage. The generation of the battery switching signal is realized by, for example, a simple comparator circuit having a comparison reference voltage slightly lower than a specified voltage.

電池制御回路5は、停電検出信号が入力され、かつバッテリ切替信号が与えられた(AC/DC変換器の出力電圧が低下し始めた)ときに、バッテリ切替回路6に対し、バッテリ切替指令を出す。   The battery control circuit 5 issues a battery switching command to the battery switching circuit 6 when the power failure detection signal is input and the battery switching signal is given (the output voltage of the AC / DC converter starts to decrease). put out.

本実施形態によるバックアップ動作は、図2に示すタイムチャートで説明する。商用電源1(AC100V)の印加によって(時刻t1)、AC/DC変換器2の整流出力は一定電圧まで上昇し、これに伴ってAC/DC変換器2の出力電圧(5V)は正規の電圧出力を得る。また、AC/DC変換器2は、出力電圧(5V)の確立によってバッテリ切替信号を復帰(電圧低下でない)させる。   The backup operation according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the time chart shown in FIG. With the application of the commercial power source 1 (AC 100V) (time t1), the rectified output of the AC / DC converter 2 rises to a certain voltage, and accordingly the output voltage (5V) of the AC / DC converter 2 is a normal voltage. Get the output. Further, the AC / DC converter 2 restores the battery switching signal (not a voltage drop) by establishing the output voltage (5V).

一方、停電検出回路3は商用電源1(AC100V)の印加時点から一定時間の遅れをもって停電検出信号のOFF出力を得る(時刻t2)。この出力によって、バッテリ切替回路6はOFF状態にあり、AC/DC変換器2による電圧Vdd(5V)の電源供給を行う。   On the other hand, the power failure detection circuit 3 obtains an OFF output of the power failure detection signal with a certain time delay from the application time point of the commercial power source 1 (AC 100V) (time t2). Due to this output, the battery switching circuit 6 is in an OFF state, and the AC / DC converter 2 supplies power of the voltage Vdd (5 V).

この状態において、商用電源1に瞬断が発生したとき(時刻t3)、停電検出回路3はその期間だけの停電検出を行うが、AC/DC変換器2がバッテリ切替信号を発生しないため、バッテリ切替えは行わない。   In this state, when a momentary interruption occurs in the commercial power source 1 (time t3), the power failure detection circuit 3 performs power failure detection only during that period, but the AC / DC converter 2 does not generate a battery switching signal. No switching is performed.

一方、商用電源1に停電が発生したとき(時刻t4)、AC/DC変換器2の電圧が低下し始めたときにバッテリ切替信号が発生し、電池制御回路5はバッテリ切替回路6に切替信号を出力し、一次電池7を電源として出力電圧Vddを得る。停電が解消したとき(復電時)は、時刻t1→t2と同様になる。   On the other hand, when a power failure occurs in the commercial power supply 1 (time t4), a battery switching signal is generated when the voltage of the AC / DC converter 2 starts to decrease, and the battery control circuit 5 sends a switching signal to the battery switching circuit 6. And the output voltage Vdd is obtained using the primary battery 7 as a power source. When the power failure is resolved (when power is restored), it is the same as time t1 → t2.

したがって、本実施形態によれば、バッテリ切替えは、一次電圧の低下で直ちに切替えることなく、AC/DC変換器2の二次側電圧の低下が始まるときに初めて切替える。このため、商用電源の瞬断(二次側電圧低下が始めるまでの時間内の瞬断)によるバッテリ切替えを起こすことがなく、一次電池7の無駄な消耗を無くすことができる。   Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the battery switching is not performed immediately when the primary voltage is decreased, but is switched for the first time when the secondary side voltage of the AC / DC converter 2 starts to decrease. For this reason, battery switching due to a momentary interruption of the commercial power supply (instantaneous interruption within the time until the secondary voltage starts to drop) does not occur, and wasteful consumption of the primary battery 7 can be eliminated.

また、バッテリ切替えは、AC/DC変換器2の二次側電圧の低下が始まるタイミングで行うため、この切替えが早すぎたり、遅すぎることなく、確実なバッテリ切替えになる。   In addition, since the battery switching is performed at the timing when the secondary side voltage of the AC / DC converter 2 starts to decrease, the battery switching can be surely performed without being too early or too late.

(実施形態2)
本実施形態は、停電時に電源回路の一次側電圧低下を検出し、コンピュータ回路への割り込みによるソフトウェア処理で電池切替えを行うバックアップ方式とする。
(Embodiment 2)
In the present embodiment, a backup method is performed in which a primary voltage drop in the power supply circuit is detected during a power failure, and the battery is switched by software processing using an interrupt to the computer circuit.

本実施形態は、図3に示す回路構成とし、図4に示すタイムチャートになる。図3が図1と異なる部分は、電圧低下検出信号をコンピュータ回路8へのNMI割り込み信号とし、コンピュータ回路8によるソフトウェアによりバッテリ切替信号を発生する点にある。また、コンピュータ回路8は、電圧低下検出信号が消滅(復電)したときに一定の確認時間を有してバッテリ切替信号を復帰させる。   This embodiment has the circuit configuration shown in FIG. 3 and the time chart shown in FIG. 3 differs from FIG. 1 in that the voltage drop detection signal is used as an NMI interrupt signal to the computer circuit 8 and a battery switching signal is generated by software by the computer circuit 8. Further, the computer circuit 8 restores the battery switching signal with a certain confirmation time when the voltage drop detection signal disappears (recovers power).

コンピュータ回路8は、NMI割り込みの発生で、その時点の処理データの一時退避などのデータ保持を行い、AC/DC変換器2の二次側電圧低下が始まる直前のタイミングでバッテリ切替信号を発生し、この後に停電通知を行う。このときのタイミングは、実機の試験運転によって予め測定しておくか、もしくは時間的な余裕を持たせて設定しておく。   When the NMI interrupt is generated, the computer circuit 8 holds data such as temporary saving of the processing data at that time, and generates a battery switching signal at a timing immediately before the secondary side voltage drop of the AC / DC converter 2 starts. Then, a power failure notification is made. The timing at this time is measured in advance by a test operation of an actual machine, or is set with a time margin.

本実施形態によれば、コンピュータ回路8によるNMI処理によって、電池制御回路5を通して電源を電池7側に切り替える。この場合、コンピュータ回路8は、バッテリ切替信号出力を適当なタイミングで発生することで、電源の瞬断には応動しない切替制御と、通知処理などとの協調を得るのが容易となる。すなわち、停電通報処理、停電によるDI誤検出ロック、DO誤出力ロックなど、外部回路との協調をソフトウェア処理可能である。また、商用電源の瞬断に誤って停電通知をすることが無くなる。   According to this embodiment, the power supply is switched to the battery 7 side through the battery control circuit 5 by NMI processing by the computer circuit 8. In this case, the computer circuit 8 can easily obtain the cooperation between the switching control that does not respond to the instantaneous interruption of the power supply and the notification processing by generating the battery switching signal output at an appropriate timing. That is, it is possible to perform software processing for cooperation with external circuits such as power failure notification processing, DI erroneous detection lock due to power failure, and DO erroneous output lock. In addition, it is not possible to notify the power failure accidentally when the commercial power supply is interrupted.

コンピュータ回路8によるソフトウェア処理例を図5に示す。同図の(a)は電池電源へのON切替フローを示し、NMI割り込み処理を実行後も、電圧低下が検出されていれば電池電源への切替処理を行う。(b)はOFF切替フローを示し、電圧低下復帰を確認したときのみ電池切替をOFF処理する。(c)はH/WのOFFフローを示し、電源オン後にシステム監視によるバッテリ切替信号が有る場合に電池電源切替をOFF処理する。   An example of software processing by the computer circuit 8 is shown in FIG.

本実施形態は、停電時に電源回路の二次側の電圧の低下を検出し、コンピュータ回路によるソフトウェア処理で電池電源に切替えるバックアップ方式とする。
(Embodiment 3)
In the present embodiment, a backup method is adopted in which a drop in the voltage on the secondary side of the power supply circuit is detected during a power failure and the battery power is switched by software processing by a computer circuit.

本実施形態は図6に示す回路構成とし、図1の実施形態1と異なる部分は、電圧低下検出回路3がAC/DC変換器2の一次側電圧を監視するのではなく、その2次側を監視し、この監視で停電検出したときに電池制御回路5が直ちにバッテリ切替制御し、この後にコンピュータ回路8が停電通知し、この完了でバッテリ電源を切り制御する点にある。   The present embodiment has the circuit configuration shown in FIG. 6, and the difference from the first embodiment in FIG. 1 is that the voltage drop detection circuit 3 does not monitor the primary voltage of the AC / DC converter 2 but its secondary side. When the power failure is detected in this monitoring, the battery control circuit 5 immediately controls the battery switching, and thereafter the computer circuit 8 notifies the power failure, and the battery power is turned off and controlled upon completion.

本実施形態によるバックアップ動作は、図7に示すように、電圧低下検出回路3の検出信号の「H」→「L」状変を電池制御回路5で認識し、この認識で直ちにバッテリ切替回路6を動作させ、電池7から電源Vddの供給を開始する。これと並行して、電池制御回路5より、コンピュータ回路8に対し、停電中であることを伝える。コンピュータ回路8は、停電の通知処理を行い、この終了で電池制御回路5に対し、バッテリ切替回路6に切りの信号(OFF信号)を発生し、電池7からの供給も停止させる。   In the backup operation according to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, the battery control circuit 5 recognizes the “H” → “L” state change of the detection signal of the voltage drop detection circuit 3, and the battery switching circuit 6 immediately recognizes this recognition. To start supplying the power source Vdd from the battery 7. In parallel with this, the battery control circuit 5 notifies the computer circuit 8 that a power failure is occurring. The computer circuit 8 performs a power failure notification process, and at this time, the battery control circuit 5 generates a cut signal (OFF signal) to the battery switching circuit 6 and stops the supply from the battery 7.

なお、AC/DC変換器2の出力端に設けるダイオード9によって、バッテリ切替回路6の出力と突き合わせる構成により、電圧Vddの回り込みを抑止し、電圧低下検出回路3が停電・復電を検出可能としている。   The diode 9 provided at the output terminal of the AC / DC converter 2 is configured to match the output of the battery switching circuit 6 to prevent the voltage Vdd from wrapping around, and the voltage drop detection circuit 3 can detect a power failure / recovery. It is said.

本実施形態によれば、前記までの実施形態1、2の作用効果に加えて、AC/DC変換器2の二次側で停電・復電を検出するため、商用電源1と内部回路の絶縁が不必要となり、外部−内部絶縁回路4を省略してバックアップ回路構成を単純化できる。   According to the present embodiment, in addition to the effects of the first and second embodiments described above, in order to detect a power failure / recovery on the secondary side of the AC / DC converter 2, the insulation between the commercial power source 1 and the internal circuit is achieved. Is unnecessary, and the external-internal insulation circuit 4 can be omitted to simplify the backup circuit configuration.

(Embodiment 4)

Turn off the primary battery.

このOFF制御は、図3に示す構成に適用する場合、コンピュータ回路により行うことができる。この場合、コンピュータ回路は上位コンピュータに復電通報を行わせることもできる。   This OFF control can be performed by a computer circuit when applied to the configuration shown in FIG. In this case, the computer circuit can also cause the host computer to issue a power recovery notification.

The circuit 6 is controlled to turn off the primary battery. At the same time, the computer circuit 8 is informed that the power has been restored.
